In Another Planet, musician and writer Tracey Thorn revisits her adolescence in the suburban town of Brookmans Park, Hertfordshire, during the 1970s. Through a blend of personal diary entries, reflective essays, and cultural analysis, Thorn paints a vivid portrait of teenage life marked by boredom, yearning, and the desire to escape. She delves into the nuances of suburban existence, exploring themes of class, gender, and the societal expectations that shaped her formative years. The memoir offers a candid and insightful look at how the seemingly mundane backdrop of suburbia influenced her identity and creative journey.
